with red lanterns, who were there to guard
the coast and avert just such catastrophe
and an attempt was made by one of the
guards to seize the bride and hold the
horse till the traverse which was swiftly
approaching, should have time to pass. In
the face Of all this he bade the crowd stand
aside, urged his horse ahead and delber-
ately exposed himself, his wife and all who
were on the traverse to what might have
been terrible accident No words of con-
domination of such proceeding can be too
strong. Even If he had, legally, the right

place lives in danger in the assertion of that

Obituary..

ELAN r. JEwETT after a long and very
successful life as printer and publisher,
died at Buffalo, n. Y, on the 9th instant,
aged seventy-siX years. Mr.. Jewett was
born in New Haven, VT, learned the print
ters trade at Middlebury, and soon after at
tanning his majority entered the Office of the
late General f. p. Walton of Montpelier as
journeyman printer. Here he met the
Hon. Chauncey l.. Knapp, now of Lowell,
Mass, but then in the WATCHMAN office,
where he learned his trade and the ac-
quaintance resulted in a partnership in the
establishment of the State journal at Mont
pelier as an organ of the then successful anti
masonic party. In a few years the journal
was absorbed by the WATCHMAN, and hence
its present title, VERMONT WATCHMAN 4
STATE JOURNAL. Mr.. Jewett was subse-
quently publisher of the Middlebu~y Press,
and then went to Buffalo and became one
OF the publishers and proprietors of the
Commercial AdUertjSer, in which he was very
successful. He was a genial gentleman,
making friends wherever he went. Among
them was President Fillmore. with whom
\ few years ago Mr.. Jewett was guest of
the Vermont Association of Editors and
Publishers, and a cherished hope in his clos
ing years was to entertain the members of
that association at his home in Buifalo-a
scheme which failed through no fault of his
He was ever loyal to his country and state,
making it point to visit Vermont annually
with his wife whenever he could do so,
where he had many friends who appreciated
his worth, E.P.w
